I've just finished this game but can someone tell me [SPOILER]where the secrets are, please. Apparently, I only found 1 out of 3...and I've combed the place upside down.:confused: [/SPOILER]
[SPOILER]I'm assuming you found the secret keeper room. The other two secrets are much harder to find[/SPOILER]
Hints[SPOILER]Both of the other secrets are before the big drop into the reservoir. One of them is located up near the ceiling, and one of them is located down near the floor[/SPOILER]
more of a spoiler than a hint [SPOILER]There is a treebeast mask up on the ceiling by some piping. It is concealed by a spiderweb which can be shot off or have something thrown at it. There is also a Gloria Doll by or in some crates in a large storage room. You have to just frob like crazy to get it.[/SPOILER]

[SPOILER]You can see it just fine if you jump on the crate and look down behind it - then you know where to frob. :D[/SPOILER]

I'm now by the drain in sector 13. The drain control is in a locked room with a lock on the wall outside. The was a glyph on the window outside. How do I get into the room to open the drain. Pleez.:confused: :confused:

Just finished this one and I must admit I am speechless. I thought TotT was going to be the run away winner and now I have to decide between two. :nono:
This mission was nothing short of remarkable, a good story that was well implemented, lots of new ideas and items, a unique feel and look and the most absorbing gameplay in the contest.
The mission appeared to be so huge (due to excellent design) that I really feel like checking the mission out in Dromed to see if it falls within the rules of the contest but I know that would be pointless as it will!!!!
I can only finish by quoting myself:

Finally got around to playing this mission, and finding it simply excellent. I would almost say this was the best mission by far if it wasn't for the awful greyscale theme (especially considering that random objects, such as my EP doors, are in full colour...). I'm certain others will disagree, but I would have prefered slightly muted colours, maybe 20-25% desaturated, rather than these which seem to be more 80-85%, and made it really hard on the eyes.
I can't manage to finish it though. As soon as I deactivate the glyph wall, a cutscene starts, during which I am always killed, either by an exploding zombie, or the fire arrows of the haunt archers in the crypt.

I am seriously considering breaking with 8 years of tradition and going with ATI. The latest thing, that 9xxx drivers don't work, is the last nail....
Yeah I may try ATi again. I tried a X1800XT a while ago, but had issue with my DFI mobo, maybe I'll have better luck with an X1950XTX I'm looking at :-)

Go for ATI. The fog may suffer in some missons, but it's absolutely worth it to get back the stars, good-looking cloud deck, and properly rendered transparencies.

I'm very impressed with this mission . As someone who does not at all like greyscale missions , this one impressed the hell out of me . I think it was the choice of story and partial colours against the grey backdrop that made it interesting . As someone said before the glyphs were put to better use than in T3 . All in all this was a flawless mission from this taffers perspective and a run away winner .:thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
As for the ATI vs. Nvidia thing . I've had nothing but troubles with my old ATI cards and very few issues with Nvidia cards at all for the past three years . As a new and avid Linux / BSD user I would not touch another ATI card with a ten foot pole .
